Section A Answers (16 marks)
Q1 [2]
Answer: Temperature is consistently high throughout the year, ranging from 27°C to 28°C with very little variation (annual range only 1°C).
Teaching note: Student should state both the high value and low variation. Mark breakdown: 1 mark for "high temp 27-28°C", 1 mark for "small variation / range 1°C".
Q2 [2]
Working: 180+160+200+240+220+140+120+130+160+210+250+220 = 2230 mm
Answer: Total annual rainfall = 2230 mm.
Teaching note: Add all 12 monthly values. Show sum. Common mistake: omitting a month.
Q3 [1]
Answer: Tourist arrivals increased steadily from 15.2 million in 2015 to 19.1 million in 2019.
Teaching note: Trend is upward; accept "rose" or "grew".
Q4 [2]
Answer: Largest to smallest circle: Thailand (40%), Indonesia (25%), Malaysia (20%), Philippines (10%), Vietnam (5%).
Teaching note: Proportional symbols use percentage size. 1 mark order, 1 mark correct mapping.
Q5 [3]
Answer: Landform: coastal stack (1). Features: (a) vertical rock column separated from mainland cliff (1); (b) wave-cut platform at base/foreground (1).
Teaching note: Identify type then describe observable evidence from photo.
Q6 [2]
Answer: Destructive waves (1). Characteristics: high steep waves (~3m), backwash stronger/longer than swash, frequent (>10/min) (1).
Teaching note: Link diagram evidence to destructive type.
Q7 [2]
Angle Residential = 45% × 360° = 162°.
Answer: 162° (2 marks if working shown; 1 for correct value only if working omitted but instructed).
Teaching note: (value/total)×360 = (45/100)×360.
Q8 [2]
Answer: Core zone restricts human entry protecting wildlife (1); buffer zone allows limited use reducing pressure on core (1).
Teaching note: Use map labels to explain conservation.
Section B Answers (12 marks)
Q9 [1]
Angle Solar = 20% × 360° = 72°. Answer: 72°.
Q10 [2]
Hydro angle = 15% × 360° = 54° (1). Plot steps: draw circle, use protractor for each: Coal 180°, Solar 72°, Wind 54°, Hydro 54°; label and add legend (1).
Q11 [2]
Answer: Bimodal rainfall with peaks in Apr-May (~200mm) and Oct-Nov (~180mm), lower mid-year (1); overall annual rainfall moderate (1).
Q12 [1]
Answer: Equatorial ITCZ movement causes two rainy seasons (or monsoonal shift).
Q13 [2]
Mean = (12+15+9+14+10)/5 = 60/5 = 12 pieces/quadrat.
Answer: 12. Working shown for 2 marks.
Q14 [2]
Answer: Bar graph with X: districts (North, Central, South), Y: density. Bars: North 1200, Central 3500, South 800 (2 for correct description).
Section C Answers (12 marks)
Q15 [1]
Answer: Systematic sampling ensures even coverage along transect / reduces bias.
Q16 [2]
Answer: Satisfaction higher on weekday (4.2) than weekend (3.1) (1); likely due to overcrowding on weekends (1).
Q17 [1]
Answer: Zone C (1800mm) falls in 1500-2000mm class.
Q18 [2]
% increase = ((19.1-15.2)/15.2)×100 = (3.9/15.2)×100 ≈ 25.7%.
Answer: 25.7% (2 marks with working).
